The Organization of African Instituted Churches (OAIC) is an association of African Independent, Instituted or African founded Churches (AICs). 

 

AIC's are indigenous African churches, founded originally during the colonial period, as an assertation that God speaks directly to Africans without requiring the mediation of outsiders. They developed indigenous forms of worship, theology, and social organization, rooted in African culture. Members of AICs number about 60 million across the continent at the present time. The OAIC - the continent-wide representative organization of the AICs - was founded in 1978 at a meeting of AIC leaders in Cario, Egypt.


The International Headquarters of the OAIC is located in Nairobi, Kenya.
